Handicapped son of a Shia cleric gunned down in Dera Ismail Khan

Another Shia youth embraced martyrdom when takfiri terrorists of banned Deobandi outfit kidnapped him, tortured him and finally shot him dead in Dera Ismail Khan yesterday. The martyr was a son of a Shia cleric.

The gory incident of targeted murder occurred in Haji Mora area where Syed Amir Hussain Shah, 18, son of a Shia cleric Molana Iqbal Husain was shot dead after having been tortured. A tailor, Syed Amir had gone to his shop near an Imam Bargah yesterday. He did not return home till late in night hence relatives began search to ascertain his whereabouts. Finally, they found his body lying in a field today. He was a partially physically handicapped person. His family had gone for pilgrimage of holy shrines of infallible Imams in Iraq. Police have registered a case and began investigation. Banned Deobandi outfit Lashkar-e-Jhangvi, sister-wing of proscribed ASWJ (formerly known as Anjuman Sipah-e-Sahaba or ASS), and other like-minded Wahhabis-allied pro-Saudi Deobandi terrorist outfits have been claiming responsibility for the genocide against Shia Muslims in Pakistan. Shia parties and leaders have condemned the targeted murder of Syed Amir Hussain Shah and demanded capital punishment for the terrorists involved in Shia killings.
